The University of Rijeka, from its beginnings until today, truly believes that establishing “a knowledge-based” society is the only way towards long-term successful development of society as a whole.

Striving towards that aim, the University attempts to realize its mission as successfully as possible, especially its three fundamental tasks: the educational task, followed by the scientific and research one, and rounded up by the social task.

All the while being fully aware that the realization of these tasks is no mean feat and that it requires long-term perseverance and work from all teachers, staff, associates and above all, the students and their families.

In addition, it is highly aware that success in all three fields requires entwinement of all segments of society: the business sector, the local government and self-government, other educational, scientific and research institutions, and particularly with all citizens who are willing to help out in any way, shape or form in the development of a “knowledge-based society.”

Hence we invite you, dear visitors, to join us in our attempts to make this society we live in an all-around better and happier place.
